So if the guy was having a bad day, that justifies his pulling a gun on cyclists. I can't follow that logic.

btw we've gone over this before:
OVERTAKING AND PASSING A VEHICLE
[??316.083, 316.085, & 366.0875]
The driver of a vehicle overtaking another vehicle
proceeding in the same direction shall pass to the
left thereof at a safe distance and shall not again
drive to the right side of the roadway until safely
clear of the overtaken vehicle. A driver overtaking a
bicycle must maintain a horizontal clearance of at
least 3 feet [?316.083]
. Three feet is a minimum
"safe distance" for passing a cyclist under typical
urban conditions; when the passing vehicle is large,
towing a trailer, or traveling at much higher speed,
greater lateral clearance is needed.

Please stop, Florida Girl. You are getting unreasonably angry. The truck driver was wrong, you were wrong to defend him, and now you are lashing out over silly things like the fact that some people like to exercise early. Give it up already.

I'm not angry at all. If I was I wouldn't be on the computer! What I'm trying to present is you don't know what was going on in his life. Sometimes you run into people that are going through trials that are very difficult. To call those trials silly is rather facetious and very uncaring.

Wow, I didn't know Kayaks were that expensive! Must be a nice one!

He is contributing to the local economy.

Much like the tourists that buy your framed pictures at a local gallery. I bet if they knew how much you hated them, they would reconsider their purchases and not support you at all.

Florida Girls comments are scarier than the driver with the gun. This is the one time I really did not want to know the truth.

Ciclismo, Florida Girl's comments do not represent the views of anyone else on this board. I hope you're getting that. (And I am a legitimate American Indian who worked very happily in the service industry for more than a decade, I ride a bike, and I'm not local!)


Wow, somebody needs to pull a gun on this thread :rotfl:

:blink:



Thank goodness some of them have guns with them to settle things quickly...

:popcorn:

Where's that thread about how more people die at the hands of doctors than from guns? I think if we gave somebody a gun right now we could complicate that statistic! :bicycle:

Sad. Obviously you just don't get it. No matter what a person is dealing with at the time, there's no excuse for this behavior. Especially at 6am in the morning.... WTH, we're all very caring people here or we wouldn't be posting on this thread. I'm very sorry this happened to the original poster.
